I swear you make this thread every time..
Anyway, 6 out 10, just above average show.
Del Rio/Big Show was an ok match, Del Rio making Big Show tap was big, can't remember the last time Big show submitted, didn't mind the result but I was hoping for a Ziggler cash-in (more than any other PPV before) so I was underwhelmed at the ending.
Cesaro/Miz wasn't really good, it's funny that Cesaro's a great wrestler but most of his title defenses have been very lackluster, but when you're working with the likes of R-Truth and The Miz you're not going to have great matches, that much is obvious.
Chamber match was decent. Henry looked an absolute beast in there, Jericho was good as always, Orton looked good, but then the ending killed it for me. Knocked the PPV rating down a few notches. Swagger, the guy who 8 months ago was the biggest jobber in the company is now in a World Title match at Mania? Out of all the potential people they could of gone with (Ziggler, Jericho, Orton, Sheamus) they go with Swagger? Ridiculous in my book. Regardless, the match was still solid.
The 6 man tag featuring Cena, Sheamus and Ryback vs The Shield was a good match, I was on edge throughout this match because of the possibility of the Shield losing and ruining their momentum, but at the same time I thought they could pull it out and surprise us like they did at TLC, and they did, good to see The Shield win again. For them to go over the three top faces in the company is HUGE, WWE better have something big for these guys, I'm hoping they'll do something interesting at Mania. Reigns was the star in the match, he performs one of the best spears I've seen in a while, his spear to Sheamus through the barricade and to Ryback was SICK, in the ring he impresses me the most, his intensity is just great, Ambrose impresses me the most on the mic, and Rollins, well he's just there... great showing from The Shield.
Divas match - who cares?
Kofi vs Ziggler - meh. Gives Ziggler a pointless win, but at least he was featured. Can't complain.
WWE Title match was ok, I found it slow through most of it and Punk relying on too many rest holds, probably because Rock was getting gassed too quickly, but when it picked up it got good. I felt the ending to be a little funny with multiple ref bumps, and Punk had Rock beat with the GTS with the ref down, then Rock beats Punk with the Rock Bottom, Punk can claim he got screwed again and I hope it could lead to Punk/Rock/Cena at Mania, but I'm 90% it's going to be Cena/Rock II sadly.
Overall an above average show, most of the matches delivered, some results I wasn't too high on but it's whatever.
